Cast

We originally planned to cast our friends in the roles we needed for our video. over time we learnt this would create issues.   At first we planned to use Curtis as our pimp and Roisin as our prostitute. We had completed our planning and we we're ready to begin filming, at this point it became apparent that Curtis would be difficult to work with. It was very difficult to pin down when he was free to film and when we had arranged to film he would stop replying to our texts. It was then decided that we shouldn't use Curtis in our video. As we were planning to film at his house we needed to find somewhere new to film the scene including the pimp. I felt that my friend Anton would  be good in the role and another friend allowed us to film at their house. Now we had secured a pimp, we found it difficult to work with Roisin as our prostitute, she was also filming her coursework at the same time as such, so wasn't always able to film. The first night we arranged to film with both Anton and Roisin she didn't show up. At that point I deiced it was too risky to include her in the video as it was clear she wasn't committed. We all knew the best bet was to have someone in our group to be the prostitute, as we would always be there. I was suggested that I take up the role as the other group members didn’t feel comfortable as the prostitute. In the end I played the prostitute, Anton played the pimp and my friend William was one for the prostitute’s clients. Brisilda and Georgia will play parts of passers by in the video to save any issues with when other people are able to film. 

Update:

We decided we needed to re film the parts of the video with the pimp in, as we never ended up using them the first time around as the camera wasn't held correctly. This time we weren't able to use Anton as the pimp and since we weren't using any of the scenes previously filmed this wasn't a problem. Therefore we have decided to use Bradley as our pimp as well as a passer by in the town scenes
